[Detecting vehicle
OTM070003
If the vehicle in front of you has
cargo that extends rearward from
the cab, or when the vehicle in front
of you has higher ground clearance,
additional special attention is
required. Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist may not be able
to detect the cargo extending from
the vehicle. In these instances,
you must maintain a safe braking
distance from the rearmost object,
and if necessary, steer the vehicle
and depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain distance.
WARNING

[When you are towing a trailer or
another vehicle, we recommend that
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist is
turned off due to safety reasons.

[Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may operate if objects that are
similar in shape or characteristics
to vehicles and pedestrians are
detected.

[Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
does not operate on bicycles,
motorcycles, or smaller wheeled
objects, such as luggage bags,
shopping carts, or strollers.
[Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not operate normally if
interfered by strong electromagnetic
waves.

[Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may not operate for 15 seconds after
the vehicle is started, or the front
view camera is initialized.

Lane Keeping Assist is turned off due
to safety reasons.

[If the vehicle is driven at high speed,
the steering wheel will not be
controlled. The driver must always
follow the speed limit when using
the system.

[If any other system’s warning
message is displayed or audible
warning is generated, Lane Keeping
Assist warning message may not be
displayed and audible warning may
not be generated.
